This is a super-delicious lower carb lasagna, made with zucchini that is first oven roasted with parmesan & seasonings to give it more texture and flavor, then loaded up with a flavorful meat sauce, some healthy greens, and a variety of cheeses. YUM!

This truly is an "all-day" meat sauce, but it's almost work-free! The long, slow cooking makes even the leanest, toughest meat meltingly tender. If you prep the ingredients the night before and refrigerate, all you have to do is pop it into the crockpot in the morning and off you go!

This is my mom's recipe for big-batch beef short ribs in the crockpot - fall off the bone tender, juicy and with an aroma that is addictive as crack while they're cooking. What a great way to lure that special man into your grasp!

If you're already attached, these are wonderful for Sunday night dinner over rice - or for a special weeknight welcome home!

Note that this recipe will need either one VERY large crockpot or two regular sized ones.
